Monitoring and Wireless Controlling of Power Generation by LabView

In this paper we will try to improve and enhance the nation's energy infrastructure, by achieve controlling and monitoring of power generations remotely all over the world to evaluate performance of plants and investigate the voltage ,amperage, temperature and etc for each plant and also to decrease the workers number, cost saving in management and maintenance, predict failure before accrue and etc since the wireless networks  made an advantages of  low cost nature over traditional communication technologies used in today’s electric power systems. This paper include design and implementation of internet based remote monitoring and controlling of power generation where the platform based on the design of an interface circuit with Arduino board, implemented by LabView software ALCS (Arduino-LabView Control System).The complete system can be controlled remotely where the remote control implemented by using a VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) system. In this paper will focus on monitoring of coolant temperature and calculate the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of temperature between the Programming Logic Controller (PLC) reading that already install on power generation unit and the ALCS reading.
